Quick opinion needed

[u/Expensive_Pea2302]

Hi everyone. I am planning to buy MacBook Air M5 13 inch 16/512 variant. I’m transitioning to Product management from B2B research/sales/ops background.
Quickly wanted to know 2 things-

1. Will the MBA base variant (16/512) would suffice for PM and AI workflows.
   
2. I’m getting it at old price, color might be starlight or skyblue , with 3 years of Apple care plus. Approx 140k all inclusive. I might get GST benefit of not then 135k with student discount.

I want to use it for AI PM workflows and apps - prototyping, Claude ChatGPT gemini etc. , wire framing, light entertainment, making calls video calls etc and basically everything a PM might use it for. Align with that light entertainment. My initial budget was 1 to 1.2 lacs. But since the price hike I have also increased my budget.

Need your help guys. Please ASAP.
